# Iris van Herpen (@iris-van-herpen)

Iris van Herpen was a Dutch fashion designer known for joining couture craft with scientific and technological collaboration. The work is associated with three-dimensional construction, unusual materials, digital fabrication, and biomorphic movement. Major examples include Crystallization, Voltage, and other collections developed with architects, artists, and scientists. A balanced account also considers her expansion of couture through interdisciplinary experimentation without reducing the work to technology alone.
